Damn it, Dr. Paul, don’t go pro-Pali on me.

It’s bad enough that Xena’s Guy is doing so.

Honestly, I don't think he has.

Saying "The weapons being used to kill so many Palestinians are American weapons, and American funds, essentially, are being used for this," is a no-brainer. Our government throws money at EVERY nation, so it's no surprise when that money is used to a destructive end.

Paul also expressed his opposition to a House resolution that strongly supported Israel in its Gaza invasion. "I rise in opposition to this resolution, not because I am taking sides and picking who the bad guys are and who the good guys are."

George Washington farewell address:

So likewise, a passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter without adequate inducement or justification. It leads also to concessions to the favorite nation of privileges denied to others which is apt doubly to injure the nation making the concessions; by unnecessarily parting with what ought to have been retained, and by exciting jealousy, ill-will, and a disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal privileges are withheld.

Nowhere do I see verification of the title of the article showing Paul says the US is 'liable' for the deaths in Gaza, and his opinion seems mighty close to that of the Founders.

Just more media bait for the Paul bashers.
